He says there will be no new rural routes inaugurated before the llrstof July, and until the present investigation into the scandals in the Poetotllce Depart ment has been completed. Everything is held up, pending this investigation, and rural delivery is at a standstill. He said this would not affect the routes already in operation. It only applies to new service?to the petitions awaiting the toil ion of the Department. He says he has eighteen or i wi'ni v nutiiiom ? til. ing investigation . A a eck or so ugo lie snys lie made a special triple Washington for the purpose of inducing the liepart uient to aend a special agent into the distiict to I ok over these routes without delay, but was told that Much agent cobld not he sent yet awhile, which is very unfortunate, us the rural service is made to suffer from the alleged corruption in the I'oitoQice Department. However, only u few months wilt e'upse before an agent will be stilt. Mr. Lever, us well as those benefitted thereby, hopes to see a number of new routes in his district at an early date.
